The origins of the Internet date back to research commissioned by the federal government of the
United States in the 1960s to build robust, fault-tolerant communication with computer networks.

Most traditional communications media, including telephony, radio, television, paper mail and
newspapers are reshaped, redefined, or even bypassed by the Internet, giving birth to new
services such as email, Internet telephony, Internet television, online music, digital newspapers,
and video streaming websites. Newspaper, book, and other print publishing are adapting to
website technology, or are reshaped into blogging, web feeds and online news aggregators. The
Internet has enabled and accelerated new forms of personal interactions through instant
messaging, Internet forums, and social networking. Online shopping has grown exponentially both
for major retailers and small businesses and entrepreneurs, as it enables firms to extend their
"brick and mortar" presence to serve a larger market or even sell goods and services entirely
online. Business-to-business and financial services on the Internet affect supply chains across
entire industries.

number, passwords etc. hence, sensitive information must be carefully stored by the people.
SPAM:
The unnecessary emails, advertisements etc. sometimes are said to be spam because they have the ability to slow down the system and makes the users to face lots of
problems. Spam makes the people get more confused since important emails are also stored along with spam.

crashed. The virus attack is possible in three ways. One it attacks selected files. Two, it harms the executable boot files and most dangerous of all is the macro virus
which has the ability to replicate and expand to all parts of files.
VIRTUAL WORLD:
The people using internet often will forget the difference between virtual and real world. This causes the people to get depressed quickly and it leads to social
isolation and obesity problems. The obesity is due to the lack of any physical exercises. So its better to play outdoor rather in the internet.
Staying Safe Online

1) Don’t post any personal information online – like your address, email address or mobile number.

2) Think carefully before posting pictures or videos of yourself. Once you’ve put a picture of yourself online most people can see it and may be able to download it, it’s not just yours
anymore.

3) Keep your privacy settings as high as possible

4) Never give out your passwords

5) Don’t befriend people you don’t know

6) Don’t meet up with people you’ve met online. Speak to your parent or carer about people suggesting you do

7) Remember that not everyone online is who they say they are

8) Think carefully about what you say before you post something online

9) Respect other people’s views, even if you don’t agree with someone else’s views doesn’t mean you need to be rude

10) If you see something online that makes you feel uncomfortable, unsafe or worried: leave the website, turn off your computer if you want to and tell a trusted adult immediately.
